K’inich Ahau was the husband of the moon goddess, Ix Chel, and was closely associated with the Maya supreme deity, Itzamna — in some cases, he is even regarded as a manifestation of Itzamna.
K’inich Ahau was usually portrayed in Maya art with a square eye and an aquiline nose and his head glyph was a personification of the number four.

The rulers of several Maya centers appear to have assumed an identity with Kinich Ahau, either because they wanted to associate themselves with their powerful supernatural patron or because they wanted to foster the belief that they were manifestations of the sun god."
